Santorum: College is an evil, lefty plot – it’s for snobs, don’t go

I know his shtick is to be a knuckle-dragger, but he can’t stop himself from creating a new ridiculous controversy each week. How can anyone in a position of authority tell people that it’s a bad idea to get an education, a bad idea to go to college? Can you imagine what a roller coaster ride it would be if he was actually in power?

“I understand why Barack Obama wants to send every kid to college, because of their indoctrination mills, absolutely,” said Santorum. “The indoctrination that is going on at the university level is a harm to our country.”

At the Americans for Prosperity rally in Michigan, Santorum took up the theme again, saying: ”President Obama wants everybody to go to college. What a snob.”

A snob because you urge kids to go to college, because you want to help kids get to college?
